AI Summary Get the key takeaways in 5 bullets

Important first: Kingdom Edge is an educational tool operating an automated trading bot on YOUR brokerage account using YOUR API keys. We are not a Registered Investment Adviser. We never take custody of your funds. Trading securities and cryptocurrencies involves substantial risk including loss of principal. Please review our Terms, Disclaimers, and Risk Disclosure before subscribing.

Now — let me tell you what we built and why.

The problem: information without action

Most trading tools stop at information. TradingView gives you charts. Benzinga gives you news. Trade Ideas gives you scanners. They hand you a beautiful dashboard — and then they hand you the hardest part: actually pulling the trigger, consistently, without emotion, every single session.

Most retail traders don't lose because they lack information. They lose because they hesitate, they second-guess, they let fear and greed override the plan. The gap isn't knowledge. The gap is execution discipline.

Kingdom Edge closes that gap by letting an AI bot run the plan for you — on your own account, with your own money, under your own control.

How it works

Four steps:

  1. Subscribe — Watch (briefings only, $37/mo) or Paper Trader ($97/mo, the bot tier).
  2. Get a free Alpaca paper account — takes under 60 seconds. Real markets, simulated money, no funding required.
  3. Paste your paper API key — encrypted server-side with AES-256. The key gives us read + trade permission only. We can place orders; we cannot move your money.
  4. Pick a strategy. The bot runs. — Choose one of three pre-built strategies. The bot fires trades during market hours. A daily P&L report lands in your inbox.

Three strategies

You pick one at a time, reconfigurable monthly:

  • Trend Follow — systematic SMA-crossover momentum on liquid large-caps. Holds while the trend is intact, exits on the moving-average flip.
  • Mean Revert — buys oversold RSI conditions on quality names, takes profit as price reverts. Best in choppy markets.
  • Breakout — buys validated breakouts above multi-day resistance with volume confirmation, cuts losers fast with a trailing stop.

All three are back-tested. All back-tests are historical and not indicative of future results. Every strategy experiences drawdown periods. That's not marketing softness — that's how trading actually works.

Why paper-mode first

Here's the honest part. We're launching paper-mode only. Not because the bot doesn't work — because you shouldn't trust a bot with real money until you've watched it trade for a month with fake money.

Connect your Alpaca paper account. Let the bot run. Watch the daily P&L reports. See how it behaves in a good week and a bad week. Then — and only then — decide whether you want the Live Trader tier when it opens.

What Kingdom Edge is — and is not

It is: an automated trading service that runs pre-built strategies on your own brokerage account, under your own control, with a research-briefing layer on top.

It is not: a Registered Investment Adviser. It does not give personalized investment advice. It does not take custody of your funds. It does not promise returns — past back-tests never indicate future results. It does not pool your money with anyone else's.

The Watch tier is pure research. The Paper Trader tier is the bot on simulated money. The Live Trader tier — real money on your live account — is gated behind a securities attorney review and a signed customer agreement. We will not turn it on a day before that's done.

If that's the kind of discipline you've been looking for — built honestly, faith-first — we made this for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Kingdom Edge?

Kingdom Edge is a subscription service with three tiers. Watch ($37/mo) delivers daily AI market briefings — research only. Paper Trader ($97/mo) connects your Alpaca paper-trading account so our AI bot can fire simulated trades for you. Live Trader ($297/mo) does the same on a live account — and unlocks only after our securities attorney review is complete.

Does Kingdom Edge take my money?

No. Crown Media Group never takes custody of your funds. You connect your OWN Alpaca brokerage account using your OWN API keys. The bot can place buy and sell orders, but it cannot withdraw or transfer funds. You retain complete control and can revoke API access anytime from Alpaca's dashboard.

What is paper-mode and why start there?

Alpaca lets you create a free paper-trading account — real markets, simulated money. In paper-mode the bot trades exactly as it would live, but no real capital is at risk. It is the honest way to find out whether the bot works for you before you ever risk a dollar.

Is Kingdom Edge investment advice?

No. Kingdom Edge is an educational tool. We are not a Registered Investment Adviser. The bot runs pre-built strategies you select — it is not personalized advice tailored to your financial situation. Trading involves substantial risk including loss of principal. Consult a licensed financial advisor before trading. See our Terms, Disclaimers, and Risk Disclosure.

What strategies does the bot run?

Three pre-built, back-tested strategies you pick from: Trend Follow (SMA-crossover momentum), Mean Revert (RSI-based buying of oversold conditions), and Breakout (20-day high breakouts with volume confirmation). You choose one at a time and can switch monthly. All back-test results are historical and not indicative of future performance.

When will live trading be available?

The Live Trader tier is visible but gated. It unlocks only after Crown Media Group completes a securities attorney review of the operating model and puts a signed customer agreement in place. Until then, everyone trades in paper-mode. Subscribe to be notified the day live unlocks.
